As an American living in Britain, I notice these differences alot. I know a Lois, a Florence, a Nancy, a Jemima, and an Imogen all at my son's school. Going along with the Rufus popularity - I know two boys named Rupert, two babies named Rueben, and another named Robson. None of my American friends and relatives understand the popularity of the name 'Rupert'. Its very English.
